And heres a show stopper. The library should not use cout at all. It should throw an exception, and let the user interface handle it. Does this work also, if this library is compiled as a dll ? Do you have an example, how to do for this ? Ralf

Hi, Has anyone atempted to port valgrind to cygwin? I thought it was something that would be good to do, but its looking like quite a big job, given that its tied so strongly to the linux kernel. I could keep ripping it to bits until it compiles - but I am guessing the end product will be

On Cygwin calling tzset() and localtime() will set TZ in the environment (if it isn't set), while calling tzsetwall() will always set TZ. As far as I can tell this is both non standard and unnecessary. Am I wrong? Is it now a feature? Or is it patch gratefully accepted? Pierre --
